"Ek hazaro mein"
For there is no friend like you in a calm or stormy weather; to cheer one on the tedious way, and the list goes on....
All my stories since childhood have been linked up with you. An old family album shows us all. You know I have dual feelings about you always. They say, I should realize how lucky I should be that I have a sibling of my own. At times, I do, while at other times, I feel so disgusted that you exist in my life and I cannot chuck you out. We all know, how friends have formed a part of our downfalls, our achievements. Well, you have always been on my side, of course behind the scenes, at home.
I was the older sister who hated about you coming to this world. Memories are very less, but the faint picture goes this way when I visited the hospital to see some new creature who has entered my family. Now she'll get all the attention, all the love that Ma showered on me, would be divided. I would no longer be able to sleep next to Ma and Babai. It's you who would be taking the place (as we were short of rooms). The situation took a turn, as gradually, you became the apple of my eye. After the school hours, I would always be running home and gazing at you and admiring your little hands and feet. You would always form the central point of my stories at school.
It's been heart wrenching when I moved out from home. I could not meet you before I departed for the railway station. You came home and cried pleading me to come back. Alas, I could not and stayed back in Hyderabad for eternity, I guess (Despite of disliking this city, I could not leave it, for some unknown reasons). You were there for me for everything....Our late night pillow fights and I acting as your saviour at your times of distress and vice versa are the best moments that we shared.
As I look back, we grew up as friends.... I was never an outgoing person and our parents had brought you to be partners in life forever... Till I got married, we shared the same room...
We've had our fair share of fights and tears... We've shared almost everything... We've been best buddies at times to worst enemies at time. Our fights and love has much more to say and I run out of words. To my best friend, my confidant, my bitching mate... you have acted your role very well.
I am not sure, how you would rate me as an elder sister... But you as one younger one have met all.
From our childhood to the present day, I share it all with you...And I shout out loud for being the best sister to me...
And another one to add in our gang.
